Well, it's because of the pressures that it needs to be a formalized statute. Otherwise the pressures are so great that even though you say we are protecting Gatineau Park according to the rules of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, if you don't have to, you know, you open doors, then the doors get bigger. So obviously you need a statute, a national park statute. Now, who manages it is something else, but the statute has to be a national park statute. It's the only way it will be preserved.
